Wise Fool Presents:

Love and Emma Goldman:  A Rock Opera 
A fantastical high energy twist on the infamous anarchist and professional agitator from the turn of the 20th century  Showtimes: 

Wise Fool and Santa Fe Performing Arts present a brand new, fantastical, high energy rock opera about the outspoken, dangerously charismatic, and wildly passionate anarchist and labor organizer Emma Goldman.  Librettist Sarah-Jane Moody and composer Jeremy Bleich turn Goldman's  speeches, essays, and letters into a full length rock opera with a Wise Fool flair and style.  Suitable for ages 12 and up.  For more information or to make reservations, call 577-2846 or email emmagoldmanrocks [at] yahoo.com. A Wise Fool experience not to be missed.
Made possible by a generous grant from The California Foundation for Peace and Justice.
